Registered by Michael Hope

This blueprint has been superseded. See the newer blueprint "Backport 64 bit multiply, divide, and mod improvements" for updated plans.

Richard Henderson proposed a patch to improve umul_ppm and count_trailing_zeros at:
 http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2012-01/msg01691.html

Investigate, backport, and notify as appropriate.
